Definitions

• the present invention is in the field of framing for drawings, photos, paintings ... etc. and relates more particularly to a kit of elements sold with an assembly plan - glass - contemporary reproduction in colors, of simple manufacture, which mounts by folding and is assembled using tabs by framing and which can be dismantled as easily .
• the present invention relates to a series of frames to mount and decorate yourself without any tools.
• the foldable cardboard-type frame comprises: - A first main frame structure (1).
• a second reprographic positioning structure (2) defining a second interior frame.
• the first main structure (1) of rectangular or square frame comprises on each side a folding part (a, b, c) towards the inside of the structure provided with at least one tongue (1), said folding part defining by folding part of the frame in relief by inserting the tongues in an interior opening (1 ') of the central part of the first structure.
• the second interior structure (2) for positioning reprographies defines a second interior frame provided with tongues inserting into openings (k ′) of the central part of the first structure, said second frame comprising on each interior face of the foldable parts (g) elastically maintaining the reproduction in place relative to the bottom of the first structure, while defining a rounded interior rim.
• This structure can have a double frame for two or more reproductions with a double flap to in particular maintain and block the reproduction in a vertical and horizontal position.
• the folding parts (a, b, c) are connected together, a first forming the external blank, a second the upper part of the frame, the third the internal blank.
• the first part may be lower or higher in height than the third part (see the different profiles in Figure 4).
• the folding parts of the first structure cooperate with each other at 45 ° and are provided with protruding tongues (n) inserted into an opening (n ') of another part to block the joint at 45 °.
• the first structure has on the upper part of the frame a flat frame fixed to stiffen the assembly, in particular at the joints (self-adhesive strips.
• Figure 1 shows a plan view of the base element support (1) or first main frame structure, in the unfolded position.
• a 2 nd element called holding element (2) or second structure is presented on the same sheet in position also unfolded.
• a section showing the 2 elements embedded one inside the other makes it possible to understand the assembly.
• (-1-) is located the basic element as a whole.
• Said support (-1-) is formed of an unfolded sheet having a flat central zone (d) delimited laterally by zones a. b. c - a ', b'. c '- a ", b". c "- a '". b '". c'"
• the frame is mounted as follows:
• Figure 1 shows in plan and in section, the device of the invention, the basic element (1) and the holding element (2) separated.
• Figure 2 shows in plan and in section a variant of this device, the base element (1) and the holding element (2) are assembled in the same slots and therefore are applied side by side.
• Figure 3 shows an assembly plan with the 6 elements:
• Figure 4 shows examples of multiple possible shapes of the base element that will determine the shape of the frame.
• * 4a rectangular profile, the 2 separate frames.
• * 4a ' rectangular profile, the 2 frames side by side.
• FIG. 5 shows a variant: a basic element, serving as a back which determines the shape of the frame with 2 holding elements for photos, drawings with double flaps to hold them in height.
• Figure 6 shows several variants of elements for holding the drawing, photo or painting ...
• 2b Square element with double flaps that keeps the drawing or painting high.
• 2C Hollowed-out element for 2 drawings or 2 photos or more with double flaps to keep it in height.
• the holding element of the drawing, the photo or the painting will have as dimensions: 13 x 18 cm; 18 x 24 cm;
• the basic element 1, that which gives the shape of the frame by folding, will have its dimensions adapted to those of the holding element 2.
